Lions hall of famer Charlie Sanders to be honored at former high school

While Lions Hall of Fame tight end Charlie Sanders was playing for Dudley High School in Greensboro, N.C., his coach William Boyers would give him a quarter each time he hit someone with a crack-back block. "It gives me a chance to hopefully go back drop … (more)a few words of advice," Sanders said. Milwaukee’s defense collapsed whenever SANDERS! hit the bench, and his rare combination of elite rim protection and deft footwork against the pick-and-roll earned him a monster extension that kicks in next season. He broke out last season, blowing away his previous minutes totals, cutting his once astronomical foul rate, cleaning the defensive glass, and scaring the hell out of any opponent who dared enter the lane.
